Bitcoin’s (BTC) recent price action has raised red flags for investors as it briefly surpassed the critical $70,000 resistance level, only to retreat shortly after.  This aligns with a classic “bull-trap” pattern, a situation where buyers are lured into what appears to be a breakout, only to face a sharp reversal.
